It may seem hard to believe, but this year’s sci-fi shooter Prey was actually announced all the way back in 2006, when it was going to be a sequel to the previous game of the same name. Yup, it’s been 10 years in the making, although it’s now a completely new IP rather than a sequel (they’re referring to it as a re-imagining).
We don’t have much longer to wait either, because it’s been announced that Prey will be coming our way on May 5, so it’s almost time for the hunter to become the hunted. Bethesda have also debuted a new gameplay trailer for what looks like it will be their biggest title of the year.
From the Press Release:
Bethesda Softworks®, a ZeniMax® Media company, today announced Prey® will release worldwide on Friday, May 5, 2017 for the Xbox One, PlayStation® 4 computer entertainment system and PC. Prey is the highly-anticipated first-person sci-fi action game from Arkane® Studios – creators of the award-winning Dishonored® series which includes the 2012 ‘Game of the Year’ and the critically-acclaimed follow-up, Dishonored® 2.
When you awaken aboard Talos I, an immense space station orbiting the moon in the year 2032, you find yourself as the key subject of an experiment meant to alter humanity forever – but things have gone terribly wrong. The space station has been overrun by hostile aliens and you are now being hunted. As you dig into the dark secrets of Talos I and your own past, you must survive using the tools found on the station, your wits, weapons, and mind-bending abilities to defeat the Typhon alien threat.
Fans who pre-order Prey will receive the exclusive Cosmonaut Shotgun Pack. The pre-order bonus consists of Morgan Yu’s family heirloom Margrave shotgun and tools to fight threats aboard Talos I including: three Neuromods players can spend to acquire new abilities, two Medkits, a Fabrication plan to create the Shotgun and Ammo, a starter kit for building tools and weapons, and a unique upgrade to help players preserve their limited resources.
